Ingredients:

  • 1 pack (12 count) King’s Hawaiian Original Sweet Rolls
  • 6 oz sharp white cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz fontina cheese, shredded
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp fresh parsley, finely minced
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Keep the entire pack of 12 rolls connected. Use your serrated knife to slice the whole slab in half horizontally. Note: This creates a single large top and a single large bottom, making it easier to flip.
  2. Layer the 6 oz of sharp white cheddar evenly across the bottom slab. Follow this with the 4 oz of shredded fontina. Note: Placing the sliced cheese on the bottom provides a sturdy base for the shredded cheese to grip.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 tbsp softened butter, 1 tbsp olive oil, 0.5 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp parsley.
  4. Heat your skillet over medium low heat. Add a tiny bit of extra butter to the pan. Place the bottom slab of rolls into the pan.
  5. Place the top half of the rolls onto the cheese. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the bottom is golden and the cheese starts to soften.
  6. Carefully slide a large spatula under the slab. Using your other hand to steady the top (be careful!), flip the entire unit over.
  7. Cook the second side for another 3 to 4 minutes until the cheese is fully molten and the bread is toasted. Note: If the bread is browning too fast, turn the heat to low.
  8. Brush the toasted tops with your prepared garlic butter while still hot. Sprinkle with a pinch of flaky sea salt. Let it sit for 1 minute until the butter soaks in and the cheese sets slightly before cutting into individual sliders.
